Cevap

The correct accounting treatments pair receipts based on their capital or revenue nature: specific legacies match restricted endowment funds in the Statement of Financial Position; general unrestricted donations match revenue income in the Income and Expenditure Account; partially capitalized entrance fees match proportional allocation between Accumulated Fund and Income and Expenditure Account; and specific capital project donations match dedicated building fund accounts in the Statement of Financial Position.
Receipts in non-profit organizations are classified according to donor intent and executive policy. Specific-purpose legacies and building donations are capital receipts credited to special fund accounts in the Statement of Financial Position. Unrestricted general donations are revenue receipts recognized in the Income and Expenditure Account. Entrance fees split by constitutional policy are divided accordingly between the Accumulated Fund and Income and Expenditure Account.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze each non-profit receipt to determine whether it is a capital receipt, revenue receipt, or a hybrid transaction.
Specific legacies and specific project donations are capital receipts; general donations are revenue receipts; split entrance fees contain both capital and revenue components.
Non-profit accounting accounting rules require capital receipts (restricted or long-term) to be balance sheet items, while revenue receipts (unrestricted operational income) belong in the Income and Expenditure Account.
2
Map each receipt type to its corresponding account and financial statement presentation.
The legacy matches the restricted Scholarship Endowment Fund; general donation matches Income and Expenditure Account revenue; entrance fees match the split treatment between Accumulated Fund and Income and Expenditure; gymnasium donation matches the Gymnasium Building Fund.
Matching each item ensures compliance with accounting principles governing non-profit financial reporting.
